Not For Trout
Gang-Hooks Use Illegal

Though few Alberta anglers seem
to be aware of it, the popular “Devon
Minnow” and other spinners using
gangs of hooks are illegal when used
for taking trout and grayling in Al-
berta waters.

Provincial fishery officials have
discovered numerous anglers using
such spinners, and when it was point-
ed out that the practice was illegal,

they generally replied that they did
not know it.
Lures using gang-hooks are qui.¢

legal in fishing waters not inhabited

by trout. Such lures can be used leg-
ally in waters inhabited by pickere/
and pike,

ONTARIO “EAR-MARKS”
FUNDS FOR HIGHWAYS

For some years the Ontario govern-
ment has “ear-marked” all motor rev-
enues for highway purposes, it is
pointed out by officials of the Alberta
Motor Association.

That province was thus enabled to
spend millions of dollars on building
surfaced highways, the outlays being
augmented by reason also of borow-
ings of capital funds.

The consequence was that Ontario
was able to make a strong bid for
U. 8. tourist trade, while it also
could captitalize on the dominion gov-
ernment’s expenditure of $500,000 a
year for its Travel Bureau work in
striving to increase U.S. tourist trav-
el in Canada.

When the U.S. tourists surged in-
to Ontario they spent millions of dol-
lars buying primary products, such as
eges, butter, bacon, cream, milk, veg-
etables, from the farmers.

(This is the first of a series of five impressions of the trip that these men, Montreal on a Sunday night in the

articles written by Bruce M. Pearce,
editor of The Simcoe Reformer, for
member papers of the Canadian Week-
ly Newspapers Association, in connec-
tion with the recent tour of Eastern
Canada military camps, munitions
plants, R.C.A.F. Schools and naval
yards, made by a group of prominent
weekly, daily and trade newspaper
editors and publishers. The first
article is general in nature, summar-
izing impressions of the trip and out-
lining the various highlights encoun-
tered en route. Subsequent articles
will deal with the Army, the War In-
dustries, the R.C.A.F. and the Navy).
— By B.M. P. —

On the morning of August 23rd last
a group of nearly fifty representative
Canadian newspapermen assembled in
Hamilto, to commence a journey tha’
is probably without precedent in Can-
adian journalism,

Cn the night of August 31st, eight
days ‘ater, they arrived in Mor real
to complete the last leg of a trip
which had taken them to the Atlantic
coast and given them a complete pan
orama of the great war giant which is
rapidly taking form in Canada,

Sponsored by the Tepartment of
National Defence, the tour was init-
iated primarily to give the editors an
insight into Canada’s military and in-
dustrial activity and to provide them
Wth an enlightened conception of
what is actually taking place in this
country, with the thought that they
would then be able to distuss more
intelligently in their columns the var-
tous phases of Canada’s war enter-
prise.

That the editors gladly embraced
this unique opportunity may be taken
for granted. Heretofore they had
known ali too little of the inside
etocy of the huge machine which con-
stitutes Canada’s contribuiion to the
(ight against Hitlerism. Not being in
a position to inform their readers, the
inajority were inclined to give voice
to the growing impatience on the part
of Canadians at the apparent lack of
all-out effort Until the fall of France
in June, 1940, it is probably true that
Canada had done all too little. That
is no longer true today. The truth is
that Canada is rapidly shaping a for-
midable war machine that will have a
notable part in licking Hitler. In the
short space of eight days, the Canad.
ian editors were treated to a spectacle
that not only literally opened their
eyes but inspired pride and strength-
ened faith in the part that Canada is
playing and will play on an ever-grow-
ing scale in aiding the Mother Country
Everything Wide Open—

Everything was thrown wide open
to the prying eyes of insatiably cur-
ious editors. Nothing was held back.
We had with us Brigadier Kenneth
Stuart, D. S. O., M. C., Vice-Chief of
the General Staff, together with dist-
inguished representatives of every
branch of the service, including the
Department of Munitions and Supply,
as well as G. Herbert Lash, Director
of Public Information and J. W. G.
Clark, Director of Public Relations
for Army and R.C.A.F., and members
of their staffs. Their policy was that
every bit of available information
should be forthcoming. And it was.
Nor did they place any restrictions on
the contents of our stories aside from
the wel-known rules of censorship.

Not only did these men utilize every
waking moment to answer the million
questions levelledat them by guests,
but they made sure that every Camp
Commandant, every factory head and
every officer revealed the whole show
and held nothing back. At Ottawa
the editors were entertained at a din-
ner at which Hon. J. L. Ralston, Hon.
C. D, Howe and Hon. C. G, Power
were the principal speakers. The
general impressfon was that these
men were sincerely trying to do a
job. They were frank in admitting
their mistakes, and Hon. Mr. Ralston
delared that one chief mistake was in
having failed heretofore in letting the
light flood into editorial minds that
their readers, the Canadian public,
might know the true story of this coun-
try’s war achievement,

A Real Achievement. .

It is an achievement, too, as these
articles aim to tell, not just an effort,
a word that fails to give the true em:
phasis. We iwould also add ‘that
not once throughout the entire eight-
day pilgrimage was the word ‘politics’
heard. The men who were who were
our hosts, were far too intensely ab
sorbed in the vital task of sharpening
Canadas tools o'f war to worry about
Politics. It was one of the lasting

many of them dollar a year public
servants, were out to do a job for
Canada, that they were sparing neith
«rc strength nor talent to perform that
service, and that they were admir-
ably fitted for the key posts which
they occupied. The same applies to
the industrial leaders, the military
camp commandanrts, the chiefs of the
navy and air force, with whom we
came in contact. They gave the im-
pression of being on top of their job
and they inspired confidence by their
brisk, alert and confident bearing.
Many Canadian editors are resting
more easily as a result of those con-
tacts,

Not a Joy-Ride—

Where did we go? What did we
see? What did we learn in those eight
days? If any reader has the impres-
sion that it was simply a joy-ride at
government expense, we can only say
that it was the most strenuous joy-
ride that most of those editors had
ever experienced. From 8 a.m. until}
late at night we were walking miles
through military camps, in and out of
barracks, machine shops and _air-
dromes, through huge munitions fact-
ories, naval dockyards and arsenals.
We were bounced over hill and dale
in trucks, tractors, carriers, blitz bug-
gies and many other of those frighten-
Ing vehic'es which form the mechan-
!zed and armoured army of 1941. (We
saw not a single horse except ona
back street in Halifax and we learned
that only nine horses remain in the
Canadian army and they are headed
for the glue factory). We were driven
about in open army trucks in weath-
er that penetrated to the marrow; we
were embussed and debussed until we
loathed the sight of a bus; we were
thumped by depth charges tossed
from a destroyer on the broad Atlan-
tic; we travelled some 3,000 miles by
train and were finally disembarked in

midst of a downpour of rain. We for-
gave all except the sharp nudge of a
heartless porter every morning at 6.30
a.m. Yes, a joy-ride indeed!
Highlights of the Tour—

In concluding this initial article,
just an outline of a few unforgettable
highlights. There was the astonish-
ing demonstration of tracked or arm-
oured fighting vehicles and wheeled
passenger or load-carrying vehicles at
the General Motors proving ground
near Oshawa, featuring movement ov-
er the roughest ground which put the
machines to the sternest test and
which proved convincingly that Can.
adian industrial genius is prepared to
meet the challenge of mechanized
warfare, There was the nocturnal visit
to the National Steel Car plant at
Hamilton where several thousand
men are turning out artillery and an-
tiaircraft shells, with the largest out-
put of any similar factory in the Bri-
tish Empire. There was a Sunday
morning preview of that remarkable
exhibit by the Department of Mun-
itions and Supply at the Canadian
National Exhibition, giving a vivid
portrayal of the achievement of Can-
ada’s war industries. At the Inglis
plant in Toronto, apart from viewing
the production of Bren machine guns
in full swing, we were addressed by
ajor Hahn, who earlier in the war was
severely maligned by some sections
of the press, but whose enterprise and
ingenuity have created one of the
most integral units in Canada’s war
machine,

Tanks, Planes, Guns.

On we travelled to Camp Borden and

ed with the Great War, but which

ion in teh past year, where impres-
sive displays of Canada’s armed might

TOWN COUNCIL MEET

With a full Gokheis, and rather a
short agenda, the meeting on Tuesday
evening last was one of the shortest
in some time, although one member
rather upset the rest of the body when
he announced that he had enough
“material to take u at least two hours
or so,” Concerning two proposals
regarding the lower section of the
Massey-Harris bui ding and the shed
at the rear, powers were left in the
hands of a committe of three coun-
cilors to make such arangemenis as
seem practical, after having looked
he situation over,

Provided the necesary requirements
are met, the Coucil gave permission
for one tax acount in arrears to be
consolidated,

The regular annual motion granting
tax exemption to the local church par-
sonages was passed,

the Town is much be.ter of than at
the same time last year. The pro-
vincial inspector who felt that the
Council did not spend sufficient time
On these statements woud have been
convinced o:herwise on Tuesday eve-
ning. The councilors not only read
the statements, but audited them, and
proceeded to give the secretary a har-
10wing time in explaining the fi:ures
found on different sides o the sheet.

A letter concerning memb:ersh'p in
the Canadian Federation of Mayors &
Muncipalities was referred to coun-
cillors individuaaly, and they are ex-
pected to have reached a decis'o1 by
the next meeting.

A letter received from the federal
government anent Re-consecration
Week was filed, as the program was

have been done regarding this.

red to Constable .Rawsthorne.

A suggestion from one ccuncillor
concerning the speeding menace in
towns was well received. A limit of
twenty-five miles per hour fn the
main highway passing tl rough towns
was often considered unreasonable, he
said, and the officers of the law fcund
it a very hard matter to enforce. A
more reasonable solution, he felt, was
to raise the limit to thiry-five mph.
and see that it was adhered to. Such
a speed would probably be onsidered
more reasonable by most drivers, and
they might make an effort to stick
to it. The suggestion was well re-
ceived, and it was decided that at the
next meeting of the Alberta associa-
tion, it could be brought up and dis-
cussed,

Since the level of water in the park

low water level at the end of the sea-
son last year, itwas decided t at an
effort should be made immediately to
se that a channel is dug from the-
pump-house to the low water ara in
the centre of the lake.

The secretary was limstructed to
obtain the relative costs of yellow
paint for the marking of parking sites
on the sidewalks. A check was ask-
ed for on whether the road on Second
Avenue could be improved. It was
reported that the Railway Avenue sur-
face was just about as good as the
town’s machinery could get it.

Accounts to the amount of sixty:

Edmonton— In an effort to aille-
viate to some extent the housing ait-
uation caused by the transfer of the
three university residences to the Ro-
yal Canadian Air Force for the dura-
tion of the war, 15 students at the Un-
iversity of Alberta have organized to-
gether to begin operation of the first
co-operative house on the campus.

By sharing all expenses of the
house on a strictly cash basis, and al-

so 9 em in the work of maintain-
ing the house, they hope to reduce
the cost of living and open the way
to a spread of such co-operative hou-
ses at the university.

A summer committee in charge of
Mr and Mrs R. Brown has been opera-
ting during the holidays and the
house will be ready when students be-
gin returning next week. Each student
shares in the cost of furnishing the
house and also share in the work of
making beds. waiting on tables and
other household tasks.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AT. AT CRETE

(Letter from G, J. Sugden, to his
father, eldest brother of Mr Frank
Sugden of Cheadle, Alta.)

NX11145 G. J. Sugden, B Coy, 2-4 B

A. I. F. Middle East Force,

Dear Dad—

No doubt the papers have to!d you
much about the Crete turnout and it
was certainly lively while it lasted
and cocst friend Jerry enormous los
ses in men and planes. The losses
were so great that I feel sure that it
will make him take a pull and in the
meantime our air force should be able
to have a hit back. As our p'anes
were not operating on account of our
air bases being too far away and the
dromes in Crete too open to Jerry's
bombing, you could say our losses in
planes were nil, whereas Jerry must
have lost hundreds. The Navy claim-
ed 65 in one day and during the first
two hours he was landing troops in
our area | think they claimed to have
brought down 17 planes by ground
tire. As he was losing planes for many
days before the troops were landed
and every day after it would be very
hard to estimate the total losses.

Well to carry on from my last letter
we had many day raids which com-
menced at daylight and continued on
nd off all day long. His bombers used
to come over in flights of 15 and 20 in
regular waves and there were often
times when there would be 100 or
more overhead all dropping bombs of
every description. When they had us
ed up all their load most of them
would give us the once over with ma:
chin® guns before leaving for their
base for a fresh supply. On his big™
day when he finished up landing para
chutists he had hundreds of planes
overhead all day and it would be very
bard for anyone to estimate what the
number were except for the fact that
London had not’ been experiencing
any raids which pointed to the fact
that his whole air force was having
a slap at us. Even German prisoners
we captured in Crete were surprised
at the number of German planes in
the sky. After this intense blitz and
at about 3 to 4 p.m. over came. the
troop carriers flying very low over
the sea and began to empty out their
troops from about 300 ft. They landed
in three places in our area and two
of the three were in the midst of our
troops. There would be 17 to 20 in
each machine and as’ the number

RECORD MEDAL YEAR

Expected at Royal Mint After War

London’s Royal Mint expects to
turn out more medals in the year fol-
lowing the present war than at any
period in its history; and in an aver-
age year it strikes some 34,000 of
them and of decorations of all kinds.
The Mint has been doing that contin-

uously since 1643 when Charles I in-
stituted the Forlorn Hope Badge.
Meanwhile they are busy making

not only the decorations awarded dur-
ing the war to the fighting services
but the George Crosses and George
Medals now for the first time in his-
tory awarded for valour to civilians.

It was the King himself who decid-
ed that the ribbon, which is blue, for
the George Cross should be widened
to the same length as that of the Vic-
toria Cross. The monarch chooses all
ribbons, and always has done so. He
is assisted by a committee to make
sure that a design has not already
been used either here or by a foreign
power,

The rainbow hues of the Victory
Medal ribbon, now familiar through-
out the Empire, are the result of the
deliberations of an inter-allied com-
mittee who sat to think out a ribbon
incorporating the colours of all the
allied nations concerned in the last
war.

After the South African War, it was
King Edward VII himself who decided
that the colours of the Orange Free
State should be those used for the
King's Medal.

‘landea that day was estimated at 2000
you can imagine how thick they were,
We were not idle and everyone got
to work and what with burning and
crashing planes parachutes not open-
ing and troops landing in trees and
among our machine guns the slaugh-
ter was rather great. Just near us one
troop carrier crashed in flames with
its full load still on board and a num
ber of parachutists landed into the
inferno. Not very pleasant for them
but this saved us a lot of bother. Also
Saw one whose parachute became en-
tangled in a following plane and
when last sighted he was heading
back across the sea like a kit#. Quite
a few were killed by their own planes
running into them while still in the
fir. Well this continued until dark
when we estimated that in our area
very few of our visitors were left
and as we buried 1300 in this area 1
should say most of them ‘were ac.
counted for that day. During dark
ness Jerrys who were still left con-
aolidated their positions and were
agatn reinforced daily by troop car
riers. Right up to the time of leaving
we were giving fhem a hell of a belt-
ing but I understand the risk of get-
ting supplies te us was not worth
while and we had done our job by
making such a mess of his picked
men and planes. We had not had
more than half a dozen men_ killed
out of our Bn, the whole time we were
on the Island and so you can judge
how we had won such a victory in man
power.

Unfortunately a couple of boats
were hit by bombs on the way over
and this added muchly to our casual
ties. We were taken off at night by
our Navy and from what we _ have
heard since it was twenty four hours
after before Jerry found out that our
positions were vacant. Unfortunately
the boat I was on had to be abandon-
ed in mid sea as it had been hit on
the way over and the steering gear
eventually gave out. However a Des-
troyer pulled alongside and in ten
minutes we had all been transferred
and were on our way again. A)’ :

to the guns whilst the rest of us took
rifles and Bren guns on deck and
helped keep the air full of lead. We
were not hit but a stick of bombs
just missed by afew feet and I
thought the water would never finish
coming across the deck. I got wet
through but as it was a fairly hot day
did not mind that so much. The sail-
ors gave us plenty of hot cocoa and
tucker which was very much apprec-
iated after two months on tinned
scram and on top of that I was lucky
enough to locate some good old O. P.
rum. We reached Egypt without fur-
ther incident and on the way were
given hot tea, a meal, cigs and choc-
olates before continuing per train to
the camp. Reached camp for break-
fast and then a bath and clean
clothes, as the ones we were in were
our only possessions and very dirty
and lousy, it did not take long to don
the new issue and throw away the old.
Each man was then given a free can-
teen ticket worth 5 pounds, paid and
told there was plenty of Aussie beer
at the Canteen. We had the next 24
hours lying about helping to keep the
beer industry going and then en-
trained to our present rest camp
where we are to be re-equipped and
brought to full strength before having
another crack at Jerry. Our first two
nights here were devoted to sipping
good ale but since then never a drop.
Am hoping I will be lucky enough to
get a couple of days or more leave as
soon as they issue us with a leave,
rig out and if so want to see Jerusa-
lem. After arriving here we received
mail and parcels and you could fit a
canteen up with contents of the par-
cels some of the lads got. They had
been piling up since Christmas in
some cases, hence the large amount.

Storm up the mad assaults of air and

THE WEEK IN EDMONTON

(BY DAN E. CAMPBELL)
(Director of Publicity)

Girls Aircraft Classes—

Two classes of 20 women students
will be open for registrations within
a few days at the Technical

ing girls for special aircraft work.
The course will last ten weeks. At the
aircraft repair depot in Edmonton,
there are about 100 vacancies for
trained women and the demand is ex-
pected to grow as activities increase.
The course offered is designed to fill
these demands.
Advance in Cancer Treatment—-
When this province is able to sup
ply cancer sufferers with free hospi-
talization and surgery in addition to
the existing clinic services, “Alberta
will become one of the leading world
centres for the treatment of cancer.”
This was told to doctors in annual
convention at Edmonton by Dr George
H. Malcolmson, renowned radiologist
and director of the Provincial Diag-
nostic Clinic. Dr Maleolmson said
since establishment of the free clin-
ics at Calgary and Edmonton, 803 per-
sons had received treatment. “On'y
500 who applied were suffering from

cancer and 265 will receive treat-
ments,

Normal Schools Opened—

Alberta’s Normal Schools opened

Sept. 15, for students 18 years old and
over, Younger students have been ask-
ed to report September 22. Decision
to open the schools was made after
the provincial board of health had act-
ed in the poliomyelitis situation, It is
expected that students registered in
Edmonton will number 310 and in

Calgary, 215, a total of 525 for the
province. Because of military needs,

the schools proper will not be utilized

and classes will be held in other
buildings.
Sleeping Sickness—

For the information of the public,

the Alberta Department of Health has
issued a statement on sleeping sick-
encephalomyelitis in horses
and humans. A- summary follows
There are two types, Eastern and
Western, The Eastern type is caused
by a distinctly different virus than
the Western, Clinically, the Eastern
s much more severe, A wide range of
animals, including birds, may suffer.
Man can contract the disease from an-
imals. Biting insects may transmit it,
as may horses by contact.

Sleeping sickness takes about two
weeks to materialize after exposure.
It appears abruptly, usually with fev-

ness, or

er of 105 - 106 F and severe headache,
or generalized aches and _ pains,
cramps, vomiting, with or without

bowel movements. Sleepiness sets in
after three or four days. It is preced-
ed usually by the excitement stage—
irritability, restlessness, tremors,
muscle twitchings, sometimes delir-
jum and convulsions. Light hurts the
patient’s eyes, With the Western
type, about 60 per cent will recover
after the acute stage; 20 per cent will
make part recovery over several
years, Ten to 15 per cent of cases will
prove fatal.

@ Fire Prevention Week in

will commence Sunday, October 5.
@ Wages of truck drivers will be the
subject of discussions to be held by
employers and the Industrial Relat-
ions Board of the province in Calgary,
Lethbridge, Medicine Hat and Edmon-
ton this month. Under the chairman-
ship of Clayton Adams, the Board has
won pay raises of $165,000 a year and
last year collected $27,000 in back
wages for workers. More than 7,300
investigations were carried out in the
same period.

@Dept. Of Agriculture Notes—
Alberta Seed Growers’ Association

The Alberta Seed Growers Associa-
tion Limited, announce the appoint-
ment of D, O. Hedlin to the position
of office manager, The A.S,G.A. with
Head Office situated at the Terrace
Building below the Legislative Build-
ings in Edmonton, is a seed grower
controlled organization engaged in the
marketing and exporting of Alberta
grown seed of all kinds. Individual
growers and local co-operatives who
have seed for sale may utilize the
facilities offered by the organization
in order to market their seed.

Since the activities of the A.S.G.A.
have been increasing steadily year by
year, it was felt that a better service
could be given to members of the
Association by the appointment of an
office manager.

Mr Hedlin came first from a farm
at Watrous, Sask. After attending the
University of Sask. for two years he
came to the University of Alberta,
graduating from there in 1939 with a
degree of B. Se. in Agriculture, From
1939 until the present, Mr Hedlin had
been employed by the Plant Products
Division (Dominion Seed Branch) at
Calgary.

Hatchery Approval Policy—
All chicks hatched by Commercial

Canada

School,
Edmonton, for the purpose of train-

Hatcheries in the Province of Alberta
for sale must come from flocks that
have been blood tested for Pullorum
disease under the supervision of the
Provincial Department of Agriculture,
or if they come from R. O. P. flocks,
they must be blood tested under the
supervision of the Dominion Depart-
ment of Agriculture.

The cost for blood testng is 3c
per bird and where retests are neces-
sary the department, owing to the
financial circumstances of many of
the poultrymen, do the first retest free
of charge.

About the 15th of November, ap-
proximately 1,000 turkeys — will be
blood tested and banded under the
Alberta Record of Merit policy and
the same rigid requirements as for the
poultry applies to the turkeys.
Garden Clubs— Willingdon District—

The District Office of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture at Willingdon re-
ports progressive interest by the farm
girls of the district in Garden Clubs. |
They were first organized in 1988 and
at present, clubs are flourishing at
Northern Valley, Myrnam, Shandro
and Hiway. These clubs give atten-
tion not only to horticultural matters,
such as the home garden, floriculture
and orchard, but also to various bran-
ches of home economics and home

improvement.

THE LITTLE
PEOPLE OF
ENGLAND

=——by MRS. VALLANCE 8, PATRIARCHE ===

“THEY carry no weapons, wave no banners,

chant no stately measures

8 of poesy, these

little people of England. Pale clerks, laborers
with stiff, ynarled hands; old fishermen and
young mechanics; housewives, washer-women,

nursemaids and chars,

and tired children

singing underground fit to break your heart.
COTHEY climb to heights of glory as if born
to sacrifice and heroism, scaling the peaks
by humble paths and mean alleys which ‘turn
to pits of flame; or attaining the summit of
valor through dark and cruel descent into the
icy waters of the sea, Like soldiers they have
borne the shock of fire and shell; like sailors
they have gone down unflinchingly to their

death in shattered

ships, and like aviators

they have given their strength to rise ‘By

Labor to the Stars’.

“NO Abbey walls have spaceto record the
deeds of these simple ones, gone sadly or

gaily ‘to eternity.

Their names shall

not be

graven on stone nor painted on glass; no Roll
of Honor could set them forth, But the dust of

England, the winds which

whisper in her

trees, the waves which beat upon her shores,
shall vibrate with the passion of their cour-
age, the splendor of their sacrifice. Each dawn
shall tell how they arose in humble cheerful-
ness to light their tiny corner of the earth
with a candle of faith, each sunset shall be a
flaming beacon to remind all men of their
burning steadfastness, ”’

THE WHEAT HARVEST

LREADY grain agriculturists are
A suggesting for next year a further
curtailment of wheat acreage to the
extent of 65 per cent of this year’s
acreage, We doubt the wisdom of this.

Nature has this year taken a big
hand in reducing the wheat harvest,
from last year’s bushelage. Similar
conditions may prevail next year.

Also with or if the war
through next year’s harvesting period
—the European crop will be material-
ly lessened. When Peace is again pro-
claimed if Canada is in a position to
supply wheat to the hungry millions
it would be well.

Furthermore with the influx of pop-
ulation that is almost certain to seek
homes in Canada, a heavy tax will be

made on our surplus stores.

Refunding Consideration

HERE opened in Edmonton Tues-
T day a joint session of the Alberta
Government and its Bondholders, with
a view to formulating some refunding

lasts

scheme.

While those who hold bonds will
watch proceedings with a close per-
sonal interest there is also another
side which is a very forceful one and
which will effect the people of Al-
berta as a whole in a wery vital way.

If a satisfactory plan can be arriv-
ed at it will at once help restore to
The Province the credit, from the
lack of which Alberta greatly
suffered. The housing problem alone,
has lost to us many thousands of dol-

has

lars,

Alberta is very rich in minerals of
various kinds and other natural re-
sources which only await the influx
of more capital to which
would make of our Province a thriv-
ing hub of industry.

Canada’s War Effort

tions plants, shipbuilding yards and

ments of war. That is why strikes and
slow-downs are so dangerous to the
cause, for there should be no shirk-
ers in this war if we are to preserve
our mode of life against tyranny and
Godless living. The young men we
saw in the various training centres
such at Brantford, Petawawa, Debert,
and other training bases, inspired us
with their studious enthusiasm to
prepare themselves for active service.
Army training is vastly different to
what it was in 1914-18, The private
soldier as well as the officer has to
depend on his individuality and init-
jative to a far greater extent.

Hundreds of girls have taken the
place of young men in the munitions
plants, where working conditions are
made as comfortable as possible. Par-
ticularly in the production of small
arms ammunition is the work of the
girls greatly in evidence, and in their
blue uniforms they seem to take pride
in the fact that they are engaged in
war work, though it does entail eight
hours of standing or sitting at a mach-
ine on a routine job. The industrial
east is humming with war activity.

Immense areas are given over to en-
able operations to be carried on under
active service conditions, and it was
here that the effectiveness of armor-
ed units, tanks, and motorized artil-
lery was seen, Little wonder that Hit-
ler made such rapid advances under
such methods. Tanks, guns, shells in
ever increasing numbers are pouring
out of eastern plants, impressing one
with the stern realities and necessit-
ies of modern war to meet Hun fright-
fulness,

Corvettes, minesweepers,
for the air force, all were seen in
course of construction, and it made
one realize that a mighty effort is be-
ing put forth and paid for by a com-
paratively small nation of approxim-
ately eleven millions of people. Yet
the effort must be maintained, the
same as the “little people” in Great
Britain are measuring up to the job in
war production. It’s a travesty that
this should be necessary in a so-called
civilized age, yet if you have a mad
dog attacking you, the only method
of defence is to knock him out as
quickly as possible, and render him
incapable of further harm.

A climax to the eight days’ tour was
the day with the navy. Historic old
Halifax is the focal point for war sup-
plies and troops. Here we were given
an insight into the perilous work of
the sailors who not only man the war-
ships, but those gallant merchant
marine officers and men who face
death every time they leave port for
the other side of the Atlantic, After
lunch on that battle scarred destroy-
er, H. M. C. S. Restigouche, we were
divided into two parties, and went to
sea on a four hours’ trip on two of the
destroyers which were turned over by
the United States to the British Navy.
These swift vessels are manned by
Canadian crews and employed in con-
voy duty. The thrill of depth charges
was experienced, and the effective-
ness of a smoke screen was seen, be-
hind which warships can manoeuvre.
A pleasing incident was a dinner giv-
en in Admiralty House in the evening
as a conclusion to the day with the
Navy, when we met Rear Admiral
Bonham-Carter, of the British Navy,
and Commodore Jones, of the Canad-
ian Navy. And what do you think was

uppermost in the British admiral’s

—a baseball game which he had seen
that day and over which he was very
enthusiastic. It showed that even ad-
mirals as well as able seamen are as
equally interested in sport and rather
than talk shop will talk of every-
thing else. Such is the spirit that an-
imates our fighting forces. Their mor-
ale is “top hole.” We who are not in
the fighting forces should be willing
to put forth every effurt to back
them up to ensure victory. To give
them the tools we must raise the
money to pay for them.

PIGS IS PIGS

: Ae hog, the domestic animal for so
long a time spoken of in terms
that did not savor of the highest res-
pect, is now climbing the ladder of
economic prestige and is very close
to the top most round.

To supply the increasing demands
for bacon in Britain, Canadian farm-
ers are increasing their stocks to
supply this demand.

Hon. Jas. Gardiner, Federal Minis-
ter of Agriculture has contracted for
600,000,000 lbs of bacon to be deliver-
ed between October 1941 and Octob-
er 1942. This will require the raising
of 5 1-4 million hogs. The home mar-
ket requires over 3 million hogs per
year— hence the total number will

‘require some 8 1-4 million.

Three and a half years ago Canada’s
hog population was about 3 1-2 mil-
lion.

The hog market 1Is_ replacing the
wheat market in Western Canada, in
bringing home the bacon in a_ very
substantial way.

Rabbits ;

For some years past a Toronto fam-
ily has been camping out at Bolton,
Ont., where the two sons of the tent-
ing group have become well known.
Recently the boys—one about twelve,
the other fourteenish—called on a Bol-
ton resident asking permission to
catch rabbits on his property. We
like rabbit stew for dinner, they ex-
plained. The local landowner said it
was okay by him, but how did they
propose to catch their rabbits? Did
they use snares, or what? With com-
plete confidence the older lad spoke
up— “No snares,” he said, “We just
chase them until they are out of
breath, then knock them over.” And
that, our Bolton operative assures us,
is exactly what, between them, they
did. —Maclean’s.

CANADA AT WAR

(Continued from Page One)

sion of Canada’s new tanks roared
up and down in front o tthe factory
in which they were produced, while
at the Fairchild aircraft plant we
watched huge bombers being const-
ructed and assembled from start to
finish, Then there was the memor-
abe morning at Sorel where the mag:
nificent new 25- pounder artillery guns
are being forged and where corvettes
are coming off the stocks at a rapid
clip, all under direction of the now
famous Simard brothers, whom we
had the privilege of meeting. On
to Valcartier, another name imperish-
ably associated with the days of 1914-
1918, where we met French-Candian
officers and men and gained new in-
sight into the military situation in
Quebec, . Then to Debert, that great
new military camp hewed from the
backwoods of Nova Scotia, final train-
ing point for Canadian troops bound
for England. Lastly, Halifax, a
story in itself, where the great pulse
of Canada’s war activity beats at an
acelerating pace, and where we rode
one of the fifty American destroyers
to sea and dined with the Commodore
and his staff. To many other places
we journeyed, many new acquaint-
ances made, and stirring stories heard.
Here a man from Dunkirk, another
from the sunken Fraser, one who had
just flown from England or another
about to board a bomber for the Old
Land, heroes of the Battle of Britain,
and men from London who had lived
and worked through the Blits.

In succeedin garticles we will try
to tell the story of Cananda’s army,
navy and air force, of the turning
wheels, and spinning lathes that are
writing a new and glorious chapter
in Canada’s history and which may
revolutionize the Dominion’s entire
future, Certain it is that since the
fall of France a little more than a year
ago, a miracle has been wrought.
While Canadians fumed impatiently,
the keen brains of Canada’s military
and industrial leaders were working
night and day, to draft the blueprint
of Canada's magnified war machine
and to set in motion the wheels that
would make her contribution to the
Empire cause one of which every
Canadian may rightly be proud.

“Don't you wish we
could shorten the war?”

He: “Well, in a way we can, you know.”
She:

“But, George, we're not trained to do any-
thing...”

“Training doesn’t matter for what I'm thinking
about. I was wondering whether we couldn’t put

more of our income into War Savings Certifi-
cates.”

She: “And why not? We might have to go without one
or two pet luxuries—but wouldn't it be worth it te
bring back peace again?”

“And won't we be glad of the money—and the
interest it will have earned—in a world without

war restrictions!”

He:

The help of every Canadian is needed for Victory. In these days
of war the thoughtless selfish spender is a traitor to our war effort.
A reduction in personal spending is now a vital necessity to re
lieve the pressure for goods, to enable more and more lobour and
materials to be diverted to winning the war. The all-out effort,
which Canada must make, demands this self-denial of each of us.

P. B. Club— Dear Friends. Many !
thanks for your most welcome parcel
which I received a few days ago, How
thoughtful and kind you people are to
us chaps over here, but I can honest-
ly say that we really do appreciate
all that you do for us. The parcels
are worth their weight in gold, the
peanut butter goes over in a big way
with the boys, also the cookies.

Under the conditions in which I am
trying to write these few lines, I find
it very hard to write a letter of inter-
est to you people over there. Things
are very lively here just at present,
we are expecting big things to hap-
pen and in my opinion we have noth-
ing to fear on this island. We are
ready and every human being will do
their utmost, and our foe will receive
a little more than he expects, as a
matter of fact he will be on the re-
ceiving end this time.

Well friends must draw to a close
as it is getting late, so must ring off
and once again thanking one and all
for all that you are doing. It raises
our spirits when we know that you
are doing more than thinking about
us over here, so cheerio. Regards to
everyone around Carseland.
